“Thank you to all for this program. It was well run, fun, safe and a great way for my son to spend his holidays. Will highly recommend to others as a great activity for kids. My son absolutely loved it and is keen to progress to Tackers 2. My younger son who is 5 will also join up when he is old enough.”

“My 8 yo daughter absolutely loved this course. To be able to get straight into a boat and be hands on the first day was fantastic, as I had been preparing her to spend the first day indoors doing theory. I have recommended this course to so many people already, and as her mother am also registered to do twilight ladies sailing as well. Andrew and the team were fantastic, big thanks!”
